Hamilton Beach BrewStation Model 47114, Good Coffee Maker Without Any Bells & Whistles

The time finally came to where I threw out an old fashioned drip coffee pot that my husband bought a couple of years ago to replace one that I had been given when we got married. My old drip pot is perfect for brewing 4-6 cups of coffee and I use it mostly on weekends. He thought he would buy a new drip coffee pot for our travel trailer but it doesn't match in quality and I can't stand it! I purchased a Hamilton Beach BrewStation, Model 47114 Coffee Maker after Christmas for only $20.00. It looked awesome, and I couldn't wait to try it out (and throw out the drip pot I couldn't stand!)

Hamilton Beach BrewStation Coffee Maker, Model 47114

This is a very attractive unit and will match any kitchen being an all black color. It will brew up to 12 cups of coffee at a time. It is simple to brew coffee with and dispenses one cup of coffee at a time. There is no "pot" and no warming tray. You simply get a cup of coffee when you want it.

To set up the machine you must first clean it. You will need to remove the filter basket and the coffee tank and wash with soap and water, dry and put back together. These pieces are made of a pvc material and lock right into place. The lid to the coffee maker sits on top of the filter basket and is opened by simply lifting it up and back down to close it.

The Hamilton Beach BrewStation Coffee Maker, Model 47114 comes with the above mentioned filter basket, coffee tank, a coffee scoop, a package of cleaner and of course the main unit. The main unit is large, has rubberized circular thingies on the bottom which prevent slipping while on your counter top and is a very nice feature to have when using this in a travel trailer. It has only a 3-ft. power cord which could be a little longer and a storage area on the back of the machine would also be nice for when the coffee maker is not in use.
